New OC named

[Chris Cappella]

Per Tanner Schultz (Director of Football Operations) on twitter: "Want to Welcome our new OC/QB Coach @mikemiller426 #ColonialPride #RMU"

Brian, or anyone for that matter, thoughts? Would love to see if Jay could get a feature article with him.

Big time hire if you ask me kids and recruits will love his experience compared to the last guy we had here. Would love to see Jason reach out to him to get a story. Also I believe its ( Tanner Schultheis ) you can follow the new OC/QB coach @MikeMillerRMU Go Bobby Mo !!!

Do you think with the signing of miller and addition of 7-8 new receivers we're seeing the changing of a new era?

According to Chiappazzi, Miller was the former Arizona OC and Steelers assistant coach. Now, I don't care what his numbers and such might be from that time. That's a whole new level of professionalism, thinking, organization and authority taking a step on campus.

Miller was Cardinals WR coach the year Fitzgerald, Boldin and Steve Breaston all had 1,000 yards receiving. Was the OC there when Kevin Kolb was trying to be a thing. I'm very intrigued. From what i remember, that was more of a spread-ish offense. Lots of shotgun action. Nice to have someone in the house who might be able to adjust and scheme.

So where to begin.

Great hire by RMU and probably Mike should have been the OC two years ago but not sure if he would have been available.

2006 (spring) Berlin Thunder
(quarterbacks/wide receivers)
2006 (fall) Robert Morris University
(defensive line)
2007–2008 Arizona Cardinals

2009–2010 Arizona Cardinals
(passing game coordinator)
2011–2012 Arizona Cardinals

2013 Montreal Alouettes

2014 Edinboro University

I don't have any insight into the scheme he will use at RMU. I know he has been the in the office working with the coaches. It will be interesting to see what Coach Miller develops as his playbook for RMU. I won't be surprised if its very NFL heavy for terms and schemes.

Im anxious to see what kind of playbook he puts together. He seems like a pass happy play caller, hopefully it fixes this teams passing game. It struggled most of last season

Welcome home Coach Miller, welcome home!!!
